Laravel 6.x New Project Configuration

Recently, I’ve finally started digging into Laravel 6.x. The simplicity and straightforward nature of the framework has been a welcome relief, although as such with any new framework, information can be piecemeal and scattered. After setting up a few sample projects, this is what I’ve come up with to scaffold and setup a simple Laravel application. Note that I use PHPStorm and Apache (via XAMPP).
